+
+This is a simple tutorial on how to write a component for [Home Assistant](https://home-assistant.io/). We will work on a component called "information". The purpose of this component is to display a given text in the frontend. 
+
+The setup of a development environment is described in the [Developers section](/developers/#starting-development) of the documentation.
+
+As a start, create a file `information.py` in your Git checkout of Home Assistant in the folder `homeassistant/component/`.
+
+```python
+"""
+homeassistant.components.information
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The information component allows to show text in the frontend.
+
+For more details about this component, please refer to the documentation at
+https://home-assistant.io/components/information/
+"""
+import logging
+
+_LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+DOMAIN = 'information'
+DEPENDENCIES = []
+
+def setup(hass, config=None):
+    """ Setup the Information component. """
+
+    _LOGGER.info("The 'information' component is ready!")
+
+    return True
+```
+
+1. In the file header we decided to add some details. Like the path, a short description, and the link to the documentation. 
+2. We want to do some logging. This means that we import the Python logging module and create an alias.
+3. The component name is equal to the domain name.
+4. At the moment this component has no dependencies. For detail check [dependencies](/developers/creating_components/#dependencies) section.
+5. The `setup` function will take care of the initialization of our component.
+   The component will only write a log message. Keep in mind for later that you have several options for the severity:
+
+   - _LOGGER.info(msg)
+   - _LOGGER.warning(msg)
+   - _LOGGER.error(msg)
+   - _LOGGER.critical(msg)
+   - _LOGGER.exception(msg)
+
+7. We return `True` if everything is ok.
+
+Add the component to your `configuration.yaml` file.
+
+```yaml
+information:
+```
+
+If you replace `_LOGGER.info("The 'information' component is ready!")` with or add
+
+```python
+hass.states.set('information.Text', 'Info component')
+```
+
+Then the component will not be different to the sample included in the `config/custom_components` folder or shown as an [example](/cookbook/python_component_basic_state/). After a start or a restart of Home Assistant the component will be visible in the frontend.
+
+<p class='img'>
+<img src='/images/screenshots/create-component01.png' />
+</p>
+
+The next step is the introduction of configuration options. Most configuration details are coming out of the `configuration.yaml` file. To do that we need to update the  `def setup()` method to accept configuration information and access the configuration variable in the `setup` method.
+
+```python
+import logging
+
+_LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+DOMAIN = 'information'
+DEPENDENCIES = []
+CONF_NAME = 'text'
+
+def setup(hass, config):
+    """ Setup the Information component. """
+
+    test = config[DOMAIN].get(CONF_NAME, DEFAULT_NAME)
+    hass.states.set('information.Text', test)
+
+    return True
+```
+
+To add the latest feature of our component, update the entry in your `configuration.yaml` file.
+
+```yaml
+information:
+  text: 'Sample text'
+```
+
+It's important to check if all mandatory configuration variables are provided. If not, the setup should fail. We will use the `validate_config` as a helper to archive this. The next listing shows the essential parts.
+
+```python
+from homeassistant.helpers import validate_config
+[...]
+    if not validate_config(config, {DOMAIN: ['text']}, _LOGGER):
+        return False
+```
+
+So far our new component is rendered as a default compoment in the frontend. But we want our own view of the component in the frontend. We assume that you have setup the (frontend development)[/developers/frontend/] already
+
+We need two new files in the folder `src/cards/`:
+
+- ha-information-card.html
+- ha-information-card.js
